WilkinsonEyre is one of the world's leading architectural practices with a portfolio of national and international award-winning projects. Since our inception in 1983, we have built a portfolio of bold, beautiful, intelligent architecture in sectors as diverse as culture, sport and leisure, education, infrastructure, residential, office and large-scale masterplanning. Project highlights include Guangzhou International Finance Center – one of the tallest buildings in the world, the giant, cooled conservatories for Singapore's Gardens by the Bay, the restoration of Sir Giles Gilbert Scott's Battersea Power Station, and the acclaimed temporary structure of the London 2012 Olympic Games Basketball Arena.

Current projects include the Compton and Edrich Stands at Lord's, a new Centre for Horticultural Science and Learning for RHS Garden Wisley and towers in London, Sydney and Toronto.

Our work is based on an informed use of technology and materials and combines a commitment to the spirit of the new with an awareness of context. This approach has won the practice numerous awards, including the prestigious RIBA Lubetkin Prize for both the Guangzhou International Finance Center and the cooled conservatories at Gardens by the Bay, and the RIBA Stirling Prize for Architecture for the Gateshead Millennium Bridge and Magna.

Chris Wilkinson set up Chris Wilkinson Architects in 1983. Jim Eyre, a former colleague, joined him and became a partner in 1987, and WilkinsonEyre was established in 1999. Today, the practice has twelve directors who work on projects individually, or together, sharing skills and experience to establish quality and continuity of design.

All of the directors have worked alongside Chris and Jim for many years, collaborating on the projects and contributing to the success of the practice.

"Our projects give us scope to fulfil our love of design, and to make a worthwhile contribution to society. Each project is an opportunity to explore new ideas, and to try and build good architecture."

Chris Wilkinson

"We love to make dynamic use of space, light and materials, focusing on proportions to create something memorable that lifts the spirits and has a logic and sense of place."
